Crude antisera are more robust than monoclonals. With anti-microbials added, they may be stored at 4 °C. Serum does not contain active proteases, in fact, serum itself contains a powerful cocktail of protease inhibitors. Frozen storage (-20 °C),however, is preferable.
Storage
4 °C/-20 °C
Storage Comment
Unlabeled antibodies are stable in this form without loss of quality at ambient temperatures for several weeks or even months. They can be stored at 4 °C for several years.
